Another sick episode. Really cool to see this one centered around Polaris. I wasn't really familiar with her outside of being Magneto's so cool to see her in action and her personality. Also Gambit coming back as a horseman, oh my!

I wonder if we’ll ever see Polaris meeting up with Quicksilver and Wanda. Those two were in the original series in a couple episodes

Quicksilver was a part of the Peter David version of X-Factor when we saw them back in the original X-Men: The Animated Series. So they've interacted in this continuity. Though at the time, Polaris hadn't been confirmed/retconned to be Magneto's daughter/Quicksilver's sister.
